I had the pleasure of writing about the hard-core devotees of Jonathan Groff in “Just in Time.” I love live theater and I am a big admirer of Groff. His performance in “Just in Time” — he plays the mid-century crooner Bobby Darin — carries the show. And I thought he was a revelation in “Merrily We Roll Along.”
What was cool about this reporting project was meeting this community of women who shared a passion and were so supportive of each other. They live all over the country. They were a little sheepish about their fandom. But it brought joy to their lives and they reveled in it.
Groff’s last performance is Sunday. Hence the title: “Last Dance for the Groffies.” I hope you like it.
